President Donald Trump’s political operation is revving up the engine, ready to burn rubber on a nationwide advertising campaign, all to rally support for his tax plan and current agenda. Their pockets are deep and their determination steadier than a cypress in a storm.
From where I sit, the landscape looks like this: the campaign, according to Axios, has a war chest of over half a billion dollars to work with. Trump and Vice President JD Vance have been pounding the pavement, shaking the money tree, and filling the coffers.
Just this week, Trump held a high-dollar fundraiser in Washington, D.C., attracting cryptocurrency enthusiasts, while Vance held court at a million-dollar-per-head event in sunny Palm Beach, Florida.
The question that keeps bouncing around my mind is, where is all this money going? Well, starting next week, a pro-Trump nonprofit aptly named “Securing American Greatness” will launch an ad blitz across cable stations and the internet.
This ad campaign, running for two weeks as part of a larger month-long strategy, boasts a price tag in the high seven figures. It’s a clarion call to Congress: support Trump’s tax cut plan, endorse his trade tariffs, and back his Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE). It’s a rallying cry, a plea, a demand — “This is a good deal for America,” the ad declares. “Support President Trump’s agenda to get our economy back on track.”
Securing American Greatness and MAGA Inc., a pro-Trump super PAC, are gearing up to drop some serious coin on next year’s midterms. Their aim? To strengthen GOP majorities in Congress by supporting those who back Trump’s agenda and pressuring those who are on the fence to commit.
This big-money blitzkrieg is being led by Trump 2024 campaign officials Chris LaCivita and Tony Fabrizio, who are reportedly in lockstep with senior officials in the Trump White House, including chief of staff Susie Wiles and deputy chief of staff James Blair.
The stakes couldn’t be higher. But will this big-dollar blitz pay off for Trump and his allies, or will it prove to be an expensive gamble? That’s part of our world tonight. Courage.
